This study is based ondetermining geotechnical properties of laterite soil encountered in Sungai Buloh. Relatedjournals and articles were reviewed to obtain sufficient experimental result informations. Theobjectives of this study were satisfied by a series of preliminary laboratory experiments.Comparison from past researchers were made for each experiments to justify and assure theresults obtained are diverse and favourable. The main aim of this study is to obtainunconfined compressive strength, UCS of suitable natural geotechnical properties of lateritesoil stabilized with cement in the production of CSEB. The findings from this research startedwith Natural Moisture Content, NMC of laterite soil ranged at 17.04%. Particle sizedistribution curve shows that the soil is well graded with proportions of aggregate less than15%, sand and fine grains in the range more than 50%. Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit andPlasticity Index of laterite soil is 40.13%, 26.53% and 13.60% respectively. Plasticity Chartplot lies above A-line classifying as soil containing inorganic clays of low or mediumplasticity (CL). Laterite soil attains Optimum moisture content, OMC at 16% and Maximumdry density, MDD at 1.88 ../....3. Samples prepared once the OMC and MDD were attainedto be stabilized with (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5% and 10%). The UCS of laterite soil with OMC andMDD stabilized with 10% cement content achieved 3.4......2 after 28 days of curing. As thecuring days increased, the compressive strength also increase among the stabilized samples.Calculations from experimental readings with necessary graphs and tables are summarized inChapter 3. The results are presented in Chapter 4 with discussion. Each citation made areincluded in References. In depth data and tables are included in Appendix 1- 4.
